REVIEW of car holder from post above

I just wanted to add my review to the first picture I posted above (holder with suction cup). But first - really quickly - as far as the second picture (holder for air vents), most of the reviews I found did not recommend it because it does not fit well on all vents, it is not stable, and it is often hard to remove from the vents.

So, now on to the suction holder from the first picture:

I got the HD holder for the car today and tested it out. I definitely like it. The suction cup sticks really well to the glass (assuming both surfaces are clean, of course). At first, I was scared that the whole thing would loosen up and fall off, and so I kept checking it constantly, but it held totally firm for the 45 minutes I was driving. Even when I went to take it off and I released the suction-lock lever, the remaining suction was still really strong.

The tray that holds the actual phone fits the HD well, and all buttons and ports are clearly accessible. I wish the phone would fit just a little tighter in the tray, but it is still fine. I never worried that it would "fall out" or anything like that. I suppose it's also good that it is not so tight that it could scratch the HD when sliding it in and out. The tray can also be easily removed and re-attached to the arm. Oh - and of course, the HD will NOT fit if you have any protective case around it (such as the silicone or hard plastic covers).

The "arm" part is easily bent and adjusted at the two joints, so you can set the HD at whatever angle you want in any direction. Once set to whatever angle, it will not loosen or bend on its own.

All-in-all, I'm very pleased with this so far and I would definitely recommend it. The user reviews I read for it on Amazon do so likewise.

I hope this helps.

Cheers!

Just throwing it out there. I recently sold my touch HD. I still have brodit car mount. If anyone wants it I'll be happy to sell it for cheap. If your local, i'll take some red bulls ;) PM me!

BTW I love the mount. If I get any other carmount, its going to be a brodit

i have become a proud hd user as of yesterday and have spent all the night to reading various wikis, tips etc.

please forgive me if i am asking you for your opinion as to your experience with your 6.5 roms. certainly, i could read another 300 pages of different 6.5 rom threads but can't keep my eyes open.

this questions goes to those who have already flashed two or three different 6.5 roms.

which of those would you recommend in terms of speed and stability?

thanks a lot for your help.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Da11y:
I'm also after some similar info. I'm got Duttys v3.0 flashed at the moment

and it's working great but feel really tempted to try out Win Mo 6.5

Miri's version seems to be the most popular at the moment but I also want to

know how reliable and stable these 6.5 ROM's are compared to something like

Dutty's 3.0 ROM :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] edwardscdr:
personally i love duttys V3, i tried miri's 6.5 and didn't like it that much... so i'll probably wait until dutty releases his first 6.5 rom which i hope he will be working on soon:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobbyTouchHD:
I´m working with different wm 6.5 roms for a few months now and I think at the moment the miri v8.1 (with SLP1.54) is the best especially with the new spb mobile shell 3!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ktsak:
+10000 :cool:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Da11y:
What I want to know is, how buggy are these 6.5 ROM's?

Is Miri's 6.5 stable enought to use on a daily basis?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] akash_nu:
If u have SPL 1.54 then the best is Miri's at the moment but if u have 1.14 then try david's as well.... Not bad in my opinion. and yes u can use them on daily basis but Miri's ROM has got some issues with the alarm. Also I dont like the fact that Miri doesn't put even a single ringtone. I'd like some nice ringtones to choose from rather than trimming mp3s.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gfreek:
As a regular flasher IMHO WM 6.5 is still not completly bug free and fast enough for everyday use especially the context menu still not fast enough for my liking even on the latest builds also I think manila tf3d is still not fully compatible with wm 6.5 so has an overall performance impact on wm 6.5 without it wm 6.5 runs a lot better! I would personaly wait for HTC to release a shipped wm 6.5 device i.e. touch pro 2 aka rhodium then have the chef's base rom off that then we'r talking business!;)

However if you want try then you can't go wrong with miri wm 6.5 roms, davidueck v7 or karmba's!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Da11y:
Thanks for your input guys. I think I'm going to lay off WinMo 6.5 then as I want my device to be as fast and stable as possible for everyday use.

Will stick to Dutty's v3.0 until he releases an update or realses his version of

WinMo 6.5 :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Techvir:
Surprisingly there is no mention of onkologs wm6.5

THis is the most stable and fastest...

Not a single person using his rom has issues...

The only downside is that you have to install applications that you need as a cab
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gfreek:
Ooops! I forgot to mention his roms yes onkologs wm6.5 are stable still some minor issues with manila without it his rom's are great!! however in terms of issues it depends on the user for me I have yet to come across wm 6.5 rom thats completely bug free for my everyday use I tend to intsall a lot of apps so yes these 3rd party apps may not be completely compatible with wm 6.5 but I cannot live without them so for now I'll stick wm 6.1 until the next build is released by M$ and give that a go;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vinaymieux:
I've also been thinking of getting the miri 6.5 ROM but had a couple of doubts even after trying to read a lot about how to flash:

1. I'm still on stock ROM SPL 1.14, so am i supposed to install HSPL or USPL or just the miri ROM and how??

2. Read the article- [TUT]Dummies guide for flashing 1.56 roms; but got even more confused (seems i'm dummer than the "Dummies" :-D)

3. Can i get back to my stock ROM ever...? Again how??

4. Does miri 6.5 v8.1 ROM has the TF3D from Diamond2 also??

It would be great help if someone could answer my noob questions. I'm really looking forward to flashing my HD with a 6.5 ROM.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PanNet:
Hi,

Don't forget about PhamQuang ROMs. They are qualities and well thought out. Stable and fast too.

Try out the last one ver. 24

Enjoy
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] aluxzen:
Totaly OK with that, the onkologs wm6.5 is the also the best for me!

A++
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] MrHarm:
Having tried both Miri's latest 6.5 andd Dutty's 3.0 I have to say that I find Miri's rom both faster and more stable.

The topaz/rhodium ROMs seem far more buggy to me than the manila-less versions of the 6.5 ROMs using the latest builds. Not to mention that the battery drain using Dutty's ROM is insane compared to Miri's v 8.1 standard.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] habibjamil:
+1M for that.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Zepiii:
Hey guys !

About Win 6.5 and SPB Mobile Shell.

Can you explain us a bit what you mean?

Can we keep titanium as running with Mobile Shell? But what is really intersting in this? What does Titanium have than Mobile Shell doesn't? And which customization must we use with titanium to be 100 % happy as you are meaning ?

THank you!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] wind79:
I think onkolog's roms are still the most stable one.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ful babu:
i have tried karmba 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, miri 7.0, 8.0, 8.1

finally using miri 8.1, so far ... ok
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ehsanij:
Miri's 8.1 rom is really very good after comparing with duty's last rom i understood that miri's rom hardly reached to 43% while duty's and most of the other roms easily reaches beyond 50%
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] nizzon:
Im using Davideuck_6.5_V-6.1 and it works great for me, I have had it for about 3 weeks now and I use it daily at work.

Even though its based on the old build I like it better than Duttys 2.6 that I used earlier.

The speed is great imo, I bet its even better on the new builds.

Im hoping Dutty will release a wm6.5 rom soon.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Carl1971:
i used Davideuck_6.5 and i tested all miri rom.

i use miri rom since 3 month . daily use.

i like it enough stable and quick.

Miri always work to improve speed without affecting stabilty. miri rom are efficient

i also use spb mobile shell 3 (MS3). not manila not titanium.

MS3 is fast and stable and easy to config and create my own tab
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] giacominos:
I used davideuck for 20 days without any problem but now in my opinion an update is required...so I tried miri and maryone all without manila.. miri is fast and require only 28% of ram, maryone seems a little bit more smooth ( and I love his customization) than miri but use 36 % of ram, but probably there is a different setting in pagepool, both seems to be reliable and stable, the best thing is try, different tastes for different demands :) :) :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Techvir:
i tired miri s roms with SPB 3. Found it stable not fast enough.. it does get slow at times..

I am currently using onkolog superlite with spb 3 and i have installed most of the programs that i need...

THis is super fast and superstable..

Did not face a single issue
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] _DX_:
I know that for my personal taste I should test different ROM's, but are WM6.5 ROM's already "complete" (for lack of a better word)...? I mean, I hear some things about corrupt ringtones, alarms that don't go off...

That seems to be a problem in more WM6.5 ROM's. Are there ROM's which do not have these kind of problems?

Are there stable ROM's that don't have flaws that will annoy me in daily use?

Thanks in advance for any answers ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] rovdude:

Im using Davideuck_6.5_V-7 and it works great for me
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] itsTRU:
best wm6.5 rom

i have tried and tested a few wm6.5 roms on my htc kaiser but none have impressed me the way anryl wm6.5 has. its the fastest and most stable one i have had to date. my only complaint is i cant get the weather tab to update the weather for nassau the bahamas even after going to accuweather.com and fiding the country code
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jigners:
my experience with 6.5

i have used duttys 6.5 R6 for a while, and on my opinion its fast and stable, the last time i checked daerons benchmarks, it

was at the top level among 6.5 cooked roms, one thing i really liked about R6 is the smooth kinetic scrooling within windows itself
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] brumbrum:
I have used both Dutty and Miri 6.5-roms, and I must say that both are good, but I use Miri's rom since it is not as bloated as Dutty's.

The dutty-roms do have ALOT of applications and fancy features, and are fast and stable. The Miri-roms are not that fancy, but instead the phone seems to have faster response, and the battery dont get drained as fast.

I recommend you to try both of them, they are both very good, but I belive the Miri-roms are more the kind of setup I want on my phone. :-)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
OK, this thread has been opened long enough. Opinionated threads are not generally permitted in forums as they create endless threads. Best solution for everyone is to make their own conclusions by trying different roms

I use a SIM card of One SIM multi number;

When I used the number of China Mobile, the number of SMS center is +8613800100000 or etc. It's OK, but when I used the number of Indonesia TELKOMSEL. The SMS center number is +6281100000, but in the phone settings what I can get is +6281100000151515, and the every time after I witch the phone off and on, the number will change to the wrong number.

I am not sure it's only the problem of My Multi number SIM card, or someone had the same problems?

the systems I used include WM6.1 WM6.5. every version of ROM has the same problem.

I'm looking for a simple and low battery consumption application for Windows Mobile that using GPS can make beeps if a POI (that I selected) is found.

The best thing could be if screen of device remains off.

There's a similar application for iPhone, do you know if one exists for WM6?

i think you have noticed that some smartphone's users have cooked some wm 6.5 rom; like tornado.

i was wondering why we don't have one?
[HTC Vox] rohit330:
bro, does 6.5 released? i guess its official release is on may 11th 2009...well i am not dat much clear...may be beta version n all will be there....
[HTC Vox] frauhottelmann:
Because these ROMs are ports of WM 6.5 Professional and are, in my eyes, useless.
[HTC Vox] mohammad_es7:
yeah man. as you said it will be realesed on 11 may, and these roms are beta realese.

you are cooking roms, so you're the boss :-)

if you ask me, i'd say... it could be fun. and may be it works good.

thanks anyways,

[HTC Vox] tobbbie:
What is the added value of 6.5 for non-touch devices at all?

Afaik 6.5 has concentrated on improving the GUI experience on touch-screen devices, so pretty useless for non-touchscreen, or? And a new PIE version on the good old 200Mhz OMAP for the Vox - I don't need this :-)

I know I will probably get blasted for this but, I find the more channels you have the better the performance.

Using a 16 channel receiver it took up to 10 minutes to get a good lock and you could forget it if you were in a built up city area or it was overcast. I now use a 54 channel receiver. Lock in under a minute and much more reliable in built up areas.

Cheers...:D

why would you get blasted for it, when its true, i had the same with my voda 1605, it works better and faster with a higher sat ratio, mine you it does only need it htink 8 to actually work.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ultramag69:
Posted before that the more channels the better it worked and was told in no uncertain terms by a few people that there are only 24 satellites and so you don't need more than that as it won't pick them up...:rolleyes:

Found using the GPS receiver that it was faster the more channels used. And more accurate too. I used to get lag on screen using Tomtom 7 with directions being told a few seconds AFTER I needed to turn corners, etc... Was a major hassle and when I was told I was in the middle of Sydney harbour I wasn't impressed, though the GPS did say to turn right..?! :confused:

The more channels the better the signal lock and more accurate the directions though there may still be areas that you won't receive info, I tend to find that the internal GPS receivers are still better than bluetooth, but any port in a storm, and I'm too broke to buy a GPS for myself. :p

I'm having a problem to delete any file from my storage card in my Tilt, which started just a couple of days ago: everytime I delete some files, they are again re-created after some seconds. It seems to happen to any type of file. I even tried to power off the Tilt, then take the card out of its slot, change the card contents in the PC using the card reader, then plugging the card again in Tilt and restarting - no change. The old files are still there and the new ones not.

Any ideas???
